First wave of M4 Macs, including smaller Mac mini, coming November 1

Macs will reportedly launch around the same time as Apple Intelligence in macOS.

The list of what to expect is the same as it has been for a while: refreshed 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros with M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips, a new M4 version of the 24-inch iMac, and an M4 update to the Mac mini that leapfrogs the M3 entirely. The new Mac mini is said to be closer in size to an Apple TV box, but it will retain an internal power supply that doesn't require a bulky external brick.
